From WALB 10 News:
A new state record blue catfish was caught this week at Lake Walter F. George.
It's now being certified by the state.
You have to see this monster to believe it.
The fish is 49-inches long and weighs 80-pounds 4-ounces. That's five pounds heavier than the previous state record.
Yesterday was snowy, wet and thoroughly miserable. Looks like the marmot was right. A perfect day to stay inside. So I loaded up the dogs and went quail hunting. As I was driving to my hunting spot I passed the intersection in the photo below. Just a lonely, little-traveled county road junction way out in the back of beyond. No stoplight, no traffic, and definitely no random porta-potty abandoned in the middle of the intersection.

But on my way back, there it was, smack in the middle of the road. Did someone lose it? Did they get tired of hauling it around and decided that this junction was as good a place as any? Was it, you know, used? (I didn’t find out). Was it a protest statement about the condition of my state's public roads? Maybe an anonymous philanthropic gesture toward us Johnless late-season public-land quail hunters?
And now, the very latest in the ongoing absurdity of zero-tolerance, from The Staten Island Real-Time News:
Patrick Timoney, a fourth-grader at PS 52, South Beach, was nearly suspended after playing with LEGOs during his lunch period because one of the action figures was carrying at toy machine gun.
From the Idaho Statesman:
Rick Hobson, a Boise wolf advocate, used a public records request to get the names of hunters who reported wolf kills to the Idaho Department of Fish and Game. Hobson posted 122 names and bought a classified ad in the Idaho Statesman that directed people to a Web site.
He said harassment was not his intent. . . .

Very calm, clear and mild today, though there was a thin sheet of ice in the creeks of the James River. We saw hundreds of greenheads today; we killed total of 6, but should have had more. The mallar…
